[bamyers08]

just a slight correction to the lyrics above. first verse second line should read: "too many TRIALS are through" not trails. Great song Thanks for posting!

[SuperGolaSSJ2]

I could never listen to this song to many times. It has been a source of encouragement over and over. Its a great reminder of the love of Jesus. And a great reminder to never ever give up no matter what is coming your way or what you have gone through. ~~~ Tim Bryant

[PolkaDotz247]

Did Dottie do a song called Promises,it goes something like 'Promises,Promises and all of them true,He's done exactly what he said he would do,he didnt promise that I would never stumble but he did say he would catch me if I fall'',I love this song,but I cant find it,I'm pretty sure Dottie recorded it and may have even wrote it,any help you can give is appreciated

[Assenatharvgr]

I love this song very good one, Amen!!!

[amandacomstock2010]

Awesome Dottie was one of the best. i met her in person before she died and oh she was such a wonderful person. she is walking the streets of glory now and sitting with jesus.

[RevChasM919]

Out of great grief and pain come songs in trhe night... Dottie gave us so many great songs, and bless her heart, she had to pay such a great price in pain and distress to be able to do so. Bless your memory love. Tell the Lord "Hello," I can't wait to join you!

THANK YOU FOR POSTING

[DebbieHarrison50]

I used to listen to this little Godly woman . I would sing her songs as I grew up like many. WE MISS YOU DOTTIE RAMBO.

[w69f69]

@DebbieHarrison50 dotty is gods words u have to respect

[markanthony1920]

I recently heard a Fijian Choir singing this, knew I had heard it somewhere before and I have to say, I was moved !

It's a beautiful song.

[roncarl]

Without question, without argument. The greatest song writer ever

[pasadena1994]

@roncarl You are so correct!

[The1Church]

I sing this wonderful old song, and love it so much! Dottie gave us so much in the way of great Gospel music!

[gospel57]

love Dottie Rambo!

[chillout1109]

Today most gospel singers often want to copy the singing style of pop stars sing a lot. You cannot tell the difference between gospel and circular music anymore.

But there are people like Dotty whose simplicity of style will always touch your heart.

Thanks for this great post. God bless.

[stellingbanjos]

i remember doyle lawson and quicksilver cut this on their heavens joy awaits

[tinygurl43]

wow, i am so saddened my the passing of this wonderful woman, i didn't know until i read these comments. I sang this song at my moms funeral march 2, 2004.

[tinygurl43]

What a grand lady I love your music and always have.

[coloradoplains]

Dottie projects the Love of God and no one can listen to her sing and not feel it.

God Bless Dottie

[tylersheldon1]

Listening to Dottie's songs are such great encouragement, when i'm down and depressed. I go to the internet and listen to her songs, they are very uplifting. Where can I can her songbook or a book of all of her songs that she hsa written? Thanks a bunch, God Bless..

[11241944]

I sang with a group for 9 years and we sang a lot of her song, and Bro. Clentin sang this one a lot, Now I know they can sing it together. Now they are in a place were there will never be any pain. God is still useing Dotties's song to reach the lost. Glory to God for her.

[EmilyAlwayz]

of all the songs she penned by the holy spirit

iam sure now with the Lord, its greater than

she could have ever thought. she had to much

to gain to lose........

[Lin4jc2]

I wish they would make a movie of her life, and put it on life time, because her life would bring so many people that never heard of christ, or her , {to Christ.} She gave all the life she had to Christ, her family, her friends and the world, inspite of her back pain. I sure do love her, and I know she is with Christ, enjoying her rest.

[shonnybeag]

i think that is a fantastic idea about a film of Dotties life,when i first got saved we sang her songs and it wasnt till much later in my life i got to know more about the women behind the songs,im from a small island of scotland and it shows dottie rambo influenced the world for jesus christ.

[maryjo8370]

Dottie was 74 when she died.

[hotrodmoma48]

yes it sadden me and my family when we heard the news of dottie bus accident i grieved it tore me up and others to im sure but god gets us through it just like he will with dottie family.she will always be missed she was the greast gospel singer she is shelterd in the arms of god now.

[keola8757]

A woman of faith,like the scripture say, they dwelt in tents and caves, looking for a city with foundations whose Builder and Maker is God. You were an epistle written by the Hand of God and posted to those of the household of faith,we sing your songs in the dusty streets of my home village and the presence of God becomes so heavy. Well done thou faithful servant. Now unto Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above, to the One True God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be the Glory.!

[Astrid270718]

This might be a dumb question,but does anyone know how old Dottie was when The Lord took her home?

[Revanthonyc]

74 years old

[dirislr]

She was 74

[dawnrad19]

[D2Parton]

[jaydensnana1103]

My Precious Holy Dottie was 74 years old on the 2nd day of March 2008!!! Thank God for such a wonderful blessing in my life and to so many others...

[CountryMusic98]

"Defeat" is just one word she never used. Thank God for Dottie!! I Miss You...

[GentleGrace]

thank you Jesus, thank you for giving us this great gift in the life of Dottie. Just love you Dottie and I just keep thinking how you are before the throne, worshipping, singing and cheerleading us all on, to live and love and look to Jesus. Once again this brings such tears of love thinking of all that Jesus has been there through it all, and now dear one you are home and in His loving arms. You will continue to bless lives for all eternity always because of Jesus.

[KostiKorff]

What a life well lived. You will surely be missed by all, but cant wait to meet you at the house Dottie. Your songs will live on in our hearts.

[superjfv]

This is one of my favorite rambo songs. We will all miss her dearly. at last my husband got to meet her. He's in heaven too.

[terrillwhite08]

What a spectacular woman! I am so saddened by her death. I had the opportunity to record her song, "Harbor In The Time Of Storm", last year and present her a copy of it. She was such a sweet person. She will be greatly missed.

[kimboluvr]

all facebook fans of dottie should check out the facebook group: The Late, Great Dottie Rambo.

Just go to Groups and type in that title and you can join.

[Estavin]

There was nothing performed by The Singing Rambos or each one as a solo artist that wasn't splendid. I have been a fan for more than thiry years. My spirit is broken because of the loss of Dottie. My heart goes out to the family. God bless you all. Reba you are in my thoughts. Dottie was a legend. Again God bless.

[softpetals321]

I can't hold back the tears. I'm already missing her. Dear God, I pray this ole world gets over with soon. I'm so tired of bad news.

[ReBK1]

Greetings All, My condolences to everyone who loved Dottie. I surly enjoyed her music.

[w1961f]

My fav of hers is what they intro her 2, the rewriitten Danny Boy, He looked beyond my faults and saw my needs.

[juliawillc]

I saw Dottie at a church in Louisville Ky. How that frail body can contain her talent, heart, and soul is a miracle of divine proportion.

[trenridge07]

Verse 1:

too many miles behind me

too many trails are through

and too many tears help me to remember

theres just too much to gain to lose

Chorus:

too many sunsets lye behind the mountain

too many rivers my feet have walked through

too many treasures are waiting over yonder

theres just too much to gain to lose

[hoover4000]

Verse 2: i've crossed the hot burning desert and i've struggled the right road to choose but somewhere up ahead I see cool clear water and defeat is one word I just dont use Chorus: (twice) too many sunsets lye behind the mountain too many rivers my feet have walked through too many treasures are waiting over yonder theres just too much to gain to lose ending: theres just too much to gain to lose too much to gain, too much to gain theres just too much to gain to lose

Voted Best Gospel songwriter of 20th century. Buck and my mom 1st cousins,Mom grew up in Dawson Springs, KY,as Buck,actually Hopkins Co.,KY (Madisonville is same county)-I was never close to them because they moved away about 1960 or so when I was 4 or 5. Lovells and Rambos fill that small place. Mom was a Lovell,used to.
